Shadow of the Erdtree DLC Review and Discussing the Drama

[@maximmad8511]

I did really like dlc(played with claymore just as you) My only complaint is this yellow frenzy forest Which is huge and empty I spend like 2 hours serching for mansion If this location had like 3 dungeons Or something And other locations also had more dungeons It would be 10/10 For me right now it is 8.5/10

I kinda agree, the Abyssal Woods is a wasted potential. Imagine Frenzied Flame cultists roaming those woods with a drop chance of getting some cool Frenzied Flame armor and maybe staff even. There could have been a NPC that originally came from Midra's Manse who have taken shelter in a cave in these woods and offer a quest for the region. That would have been awesome!

in eldenring the Player decides exaclty how difficult the game is via the tools the game gives one. and by the time players reach the dlc they should be familiar with the tools and concepts. Yes u can decide to bash ur head against the wall 200 times (i might have tried to parry kill the moonchick and might or might not have died 100+ times) but than its on u nobody owns u the possibility to complete the game in every style u choose disregarding the skill needed. but still i think there are some valid conplains i play on pc and the press jes to exchange a flask for horse infuriated me more than once. I think there are u lot of changes that could make the game more enjoyable with preserving its difficulty like removing the anoying af target swap or maybe zooming out a little while fighting gigantig bosses so that i dont feel like fighting my camera controlls more than the boss. but jea overall 10/10 dlc the biggest miazaki lie was that its as big as limgrave and😂

1.. Tells them IT WILL BE HARD 2.. Buy the game anyways 3. Complain that it was TOO HARD Sounds about right to me, some people are beyond ridiculous.

Just here to say „Scadu“ is pronounced „shadow“ like gaol is jail and yelough is yellow. 😊 Besides that, I don’t want to participate in this debate too much because nothing of that influences my gameplay and experience. This DLC has multiple issues that aren’t really the difficulty. I’ve got fun to play with different weapons situationally, I played the main game for hundreds and hundreds of hours, I will do so for NG+es including SotE. Minus the Furnace Golems, I will ignore them in the future. Btw, co-op makes most of the more difficult bosses harder.

I remember the days of people complaining about "Video Games Journalists" being causals. How Souls games were for "Real" gamers. I for one am happy that it filtered so many toxic tourists. Especially because so many journalists beat it. I feel you're a bit too forgiving to corporate greed. It wasn't the consumers asking for season passes, battle passes, daily progression, lootboxes, grinding mechanics, etc. We have very little influence on the end product. What you like about a game has no baring on it will be present in the subsequent games in the series. It's not the devs making these decisions to be more like the biggest games in the genre. It's the executives. Good video aside from that.

Thank God for Fromsoft. One company that doesn’t cater to toxic casuals. I really think when I’m tired of the DLC I’m going to Dark Souls and I’m just gonna be a FromSoft sweat until Ashes comes out

[@canisinumbra]

Dark Souls is easy.

Possibly

[@sk8legendz]

Just haters who failed in Vigor Math I think it was hard but i think its fairly difficult. Maybe dont make bosses rush right as you enter the arena so you can reliably summon is my complaint Summoning is supposed to help ease difficulty but making bosses rush right as you enter their arena punishes you for doing it. Which is probably why so many people are mad. Summoning is hard and they cant comet azur cheese the boss lol

[@isth3reno1else]

It's like they saw comet azur and thought, gg find new cheese lol

[@byrospyro4432]

those complaining its too difficult should understand that the game is about learning how to deal with each different type of boss individually, the game offers buffs and more stronger builds to somewhat alleviate this. I had a lot of fun playing the new DLC and I'm still playing it. I was disappointed about some areas being empty and not having much content, like the finger graveyard place and that forest place I couldn't find much there either.

[@Angus_McWangus]

Scadutree fragments are a shit mechanic. They only exist to milk player time, by forcing us to explore this mostly empty open world, so we can get back down from this artificially Increased damage. Which is my biggest problem with the game. They know ppl have gotten good, and so they need to use all these cheap tricks to, inflate difficulty. So that plus insane boss damage, and yeah no wonder ppl complained. TLDR: How many scadu's does it take to get to the center of a fair fight?

Pausing mid attack defintiely helps you figure out attack patterns and what to do next. Your argument is fundamentally flawed and you took 17 minutes to say it. Smh
